Re: can I use windows media player to play real audio files?

2004-05-07 Thread Steve Pattison
I don't know if you can get Windows Media Player to play RealAudio
files but if you can't you still have a couple of options apart from
using RealPlayer.  There is a program called Real Alternative available
at http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/finalbuilds.htm that might be
suitable.  Also there is a product called JetAudio available from
www.jetaudio.com/products/jetaudio that will play some types of Real
Media files.  I haven't tried either of these programs because I'm
quite happy with RealPlayer.  Therefore I don't know how accessible
they are.

says hourly news and all that kind of junk.
I want to uninstall real player.  I also want to play real audio files
using windows media player, can I do this?  If I can, will someone tell
me
how to get windows media player to play real audio files?

 Hi all,
 Well, I've had it, I've had it with real player.  Every time I want to
play a real media audio file now, it won't play.  It keeps trying to upgrade
me to the new version, and it also keeps opening a window that says hourly

It sounds like Real Networks is trying to sell people on using Real, and
only Real.
